Girl on the Corner (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781988960098)

She was born into a cruel world she doesn't deserve, abandoned then sold into an even lonelier and miserable existence.*James Castle has spied on the intriguing girl through his telescope for months from his high-rise empire; he knows nothing at all about her, yet she fascinates him. She's young and beautiful with blonde lustrous hair that shines as a halo under the glaring New Orleans late-day sun, framing her innocent and angelic face, her deep green eyes speaking silent volumes of desperation and hopelessness that mirror his own misspent life. He's incredibly rich and successful, manipulated into enduring a life he loathes with the people he most despises. Though not once has he thought that he would or should one day pass by the girl or perhaps sit with her to have his portrait drawn. Until the fateful day when an absolute stranger intercedes, bringing Castle and the girl together the very moment the man throws himself head-on into hectic rush-hour traffic and dies. Castle should see terror in the girl's eyes, but he doesn't. What he sees is an envy so intense that he's afraid for her. Short minutes later the mysterious girl on the corner stares up at her saviour, unaware that she will, in fact, save him.
